Listen to this: the club announced the deal before the work permit, because they know Willian wont get it right now. So they will loan him to Inter de Milao for one season. Next season the club sell Mata and bring Willian back.

That's kind of silly don't you think? Had he gone to Tottenham you think they were willing to spend £30M on a guy they didn't think could get a Visa?

He's gonna be here and so will Mata...

Even though a bit needless but our most exciting signing of this summer imo,Willian is class and will only improve the team.Btw people saying that we should have improved our midfield first are correct but we only have been linked with de rossi this summer so i think Jose is satisfied with our midfield.Hopefully jose realizes sooner rather then later that a top class midfielder is extremely important for our success especially in europe and that we cannot rely on the likes of essien and lampard now.

I can't think of a time we've spent £30 million on a player and been this unexcited about a player. He's a fantastic talent without doubt but it doesn't radically redefine our team in any great way, like the Hazard signing did.

I think expectations will be so balanced that he'll surprise a lot of people with his performances but I can't see too many people watching his first interview or anything like that.

Hazard did not radically redefined the team. A player alone (Messi or Ronaldo aside) cannot redefine a team on his own. What redefine a team is the way the manager choose to use the players he has at his disposal. If you say that Hazard redefined the team, it wasn't to a new great way, since last season we were trashed by Atletico, humiliated by Shaktar and had to play in Europa League because the team wasn't good enough to be at least 2nd in a group that Juventus got in 1st. But the team had the poor run because RDM kew very little about the game.

No surprise that Hazards best games were under Benitez. Hazard alone cannot radically redefine the team, he is player that would fit Bayern, Barcelona, Real Madrid but he also would be perfect in Mourinho's old 4-3-3 Chelsea. All those teams are 4 completely different animals. So Willian is not the kind of player do "radically redefine the team", because we dont even have a team, and because perhaps there are few players in the world that could do such a thing on their own. Mourinho is the one who will redefine the team, and of course its related to the quality he has at his disposal. More quality players means he has more options to create a good team.

Stupid deal. That is all.

[Berke 58]

Agreed. Bring back the Robben and Duff days !

Love it mate

He will get it. Clubs would not go into a £30m deal without first finding out whether a WP is likely to be given.

[Weckerz 3,781]

Unnecessary signing imo, but he'll have my full support. He seems to be genuinly happy to be here at least.

[Jose M 140]

Stupid deal. That is all.

Will be funny when you eat your words.

Really hope he does not get one needless signing IMO besides its bad for our youth players like Piazon. If it had been less than 20 million signing no one would complain to be honest but the fact that we are spending such stupid amounts of money even to troll spurs is disgusting. I'm certain Mata is the one likely to suffer from this signing just seems like Mourinho does not like him I know I might get plenty of stick for this one but I honestly dont see Mata at Chelsea in a week's time
